Stores in San Francisco celebrated the nationwide Fashion's Night Out event.

Tommy Hilfiger introduced his Spring 2012 Men’s Collection during Fashion Week which the fashion icon describes as “Modern Prep.”

Designer Cynthia Rowley certainly changed up her usually quirky conservative style this season.Her Spring 2012 collection was young, edgy, powerful and beautifully artistic. Clearly trying to reach a younger, hipper downtown crowd, Rowley's show was described as a “flash mobs of floral and animated shapes” alive with bold painterly patterns, glittering gold hues and fabulous texture.

Comfortable and flirty, Rebecca Taylor's spring collection started with a mix of nudes and blushes splashed with citrus pops on flowy frocks, slouchy sweaters and asymmetrical cuts. Inspired by her favorite artworks from the Louve, Tayor added a little edge and elegance with glittery sequin dresses and crop tops.

One thing is for certain: Nicholas K loves layers. But instead of looking heavy or drab, designer Nicholas Kunz managed to pull off a surprisingly light airy feel with pieces that moved and breathed that looked effortlessly cool.
